Kaylee and Toby







I did this layout using patterned paper for the Practical Scrappers challenge and I used the sketch on the Stuck on you Sketches challenge. The circle in the middle was cut with the silhouette feature at a size 10 from the George and Basic Shapes cart. The chipboard letters and heart are stickers by love elsie. I then cut two rectangles to use in the background from the George cart, the main one at a size 7 1/2 and the photo background at a size 6 1/2. I had a precut and preembossed accent that I used on one side of the page and then cut two smaller, similar ones from the home decor cart at a size 1 1/4. I embossed these in the cuttlebug with the swiss dots folder so they would match the one I already had. The white heart by the picture was also cut from home decor at a size 2 3/4. I then used pop dots and glue dots to add some heart buttons, a chipboard heart and some red gems.
